حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الرَّازِيُّ ثنا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ شَاهِينَ ثنا خَالِدٌ عَنْ أَبِي سَعْدٍ الْبَقَّالِ عَنْ أَبِي حُصَيْنٍ عَنْ شَقِيقِ بْنِ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ حُنَيْفٍ قَالَ مَا وَضَعْنَا أَسْيَافَنَا عَلَى عَوَاتِقِنَا إِلَى أَمْرٍ إِلَّا أَتَيْنَا طَرِيقًا يَسْهُلُ لَنَا إِلَّا هَذَا الْأَمْرَ وَاللهِ مَا فِي الْأَرْضِ خَصْمٌ فَإِنَّا نَسُدُّهُ إِلَّا فُتِحَ خَصْمٌ أَشَدُّ مِنْهُ لَوْ رَأَيْتُنِي يَوْمَ أَبِي جَنْدَلِ بْنِ سُهَيْلٍ وَلَوِ اسْتَطَعْتُ
أَنْ أَرُدَّ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَمْرَهُ لَرَدَدْتُهُ وَكَانَ خَيْرًا مِنِّي وَأَكْرَمَ قَالَ «وَكَانَ أَبُو جَنْدَلٍ جَاءَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مُسْلِمًا وَكَانَ وَالِدُهُ كَافِرًا فَرَدَّهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِلَى أَبِيهِ فَقَيَّدَهُ ثُمَّ جَاءَ فَرَدَّهُ»
